Sartorially-championed white nationalist Richard Spencer just got punched in the face–this time, in the figurative sense.

The web provider GoDaddy has taken down the alt-right figurehead’s web domain, the appropriately named altright.com.

“It is our determination that altright.com crossed the line and encouraged and promoted violence in a direct and threatening manner,” a GoDaddy spokesperson told BuzzFeed.

    Given that his friends included a prostitute and a tax collector, and that the only instances we see of him being angry with people is when they are doing stuff in the name of the church, I would say no, he didn't refuse services.

    That's kind of what I thought too. I would also point out his reaction to the religious people bringing him a woman caught in the very act of adultry, to be stoned to death, to see what his reaction was. Also his encounter with the woman at the well in John 4. And there is more than one tax collector, at the very least Matthew and Zacchaeus.

    Some of the closest people to Jesus were fisherman. I wonder if they refused to do business with people who disagreed with them or that they considered 'sinners'. (but aren't we all?) Peter seemed ready to go back to his fishing business after his denial prior to the crucifixion.

    Well if he can tolerate a tax collector he can probably tolerate anybody.
